Age distribution of patient presentations to hospital by malaria status (top) and <i>Plasmodium</i> species (bottom).
<p>Age distribution of patient presentations to hospital by malaria status (top) and <i>Plasmodium</i> species (bottom).</p
Predictors for Adverse Outcomes.
<p>Footnote: Adjusted Odds Ratio (95% Confidence intervals) are presented. In all multivariate models cofactors were entered into the model after stratifying by year of exposure.</p

Estimated probability of mortality by hemoglobin concentration overall (A) and by <i>Plasmodium</i> species (B).
<p>Figures generated by multiple fractional polynomial regression analyses with the following covariables: <i>Plasmodium</i> species, hemoglobin, age, sex, ethnic group, and year. Bands represent 95% CIs. Risk of death in <a href="http://www.plosmedicine.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pmed.1001575#pmed-1001575-g006" target="_blank">Figure 6A</a> = 1/(1+exp(−(−1.44−0.4146 * hb+0.0006 * hb<sup>3</sup>))), where the other covariates in the model are set equal to their mean value (for continuous variables) or prevalence (for indicator variables).</p
Univariable and multivariable analyses of the risk factors for presentation with malaria in the previous 2 months (<i>n</i> = 219,845).
<p><sup>a</sup> Included in model for calculation of overall PAFs but PAFs not presented.</p><p><sup>b</sup> Not included in the multivariable model as deemed to be a consequence of severe disease rather than a confounder.</p><p>OR, odds ratio.</p
Estimated mean hemoglobin in hospital attendees by <i>Plasmodium</i> species from infancy to adulthood (A) and during the first 2 years of life (B) and the estimated probability of severe anemia (hemoglobin <5 g/dl) by <i>Plasmodium</i> species from infancy to adulthood (C) and during the first 2 years of life (D).
<p>Figures generated by multiple fractional polynomial regression analyses with the following covariables: <i>Plasmodium</i> species by age, sex, ethnic group, and year. Bands represent 95% CIs.</p
Risk factors for severe anemia (hemoglobin <5 g/dl).
<p><sup>a</sup> Included in model for calculation of overall PAFs but PAFs not presented.</p><p><sup>b</sup> Not included in the multivariable model as admission was deemed to be a consequence of severe disease rather than a confounder.</p><p><sup>c</sup> Number of previous presentations not included in the multivariable model as this would potentially obscure the net hematological effect of <i>Plasmodium</i> infection.</p><p>OR, odds ratio.</p
Adjusted population attributable fractions of severe anemia (hemoglobin <5 g/dl) by <i>Plasmodium</i> species and age.
<p>Figure generated by multiple logistic regression analyses with the following covariables for each age stratum: <i>Plasmodium</i> species, sex, ethnic group, and year. Bands represent 95% CIs.</p
